Softball Update

I am so glad to be back in the blogosphere. My first act of business is to give an update on my softball swing. I am sad to say that in our first game I didn't hit the ball out of the infield. I was very ashamed, worried, and flabergasted- how long, O Lord, until it comes back? My teammates surround me with mocks and jokes! How long until I am vindicated?

Turns out only a week. Thank God, last week I hit two doubles to the fence. Actually, I think God had little to do with it. I think going to a batting cage and hitting 96 softballs (in 8 minutes- 1 every 5 seconds) got the kinks out. (Of course, a synergistic account of divine and human agency could allow for both explanations, but that is for another post that I will probably never write.)

Next Sunday I hope to report the first dinger of the year.
